Starting in May 2020 the Nestle Purina Petcare factory in Vorsino village in Kaluga region, Russia, is using renewable energy resources for its pet food production. During the year the factory will expend minimum 50 mln KWh of wind-generated energy. That will reduce up to 20 tonnes of CO2 emissions a year and is a part of Nestle’s global commitment to minimize the impact of production activities on the environment by 2030. The company’s partner in this project is Atomenergopromsbyt JSC, Rosatom division.
